MHC class II inhibits the generation of IL-17A+ Vγ6 γδ T cells in the thymus at perinatal stage


ABSTRACT: TCR γ chain loci of mice have seven variable (Vγ) gene segments (Vγ1, Vγ2, Vγ3, Vγ4, Vγ5, Vγ6, and Vγ7) using the Heilig and Tonegawa nomenclature. Vγ6+ γδ T cells, which develop in the thymus at the perinatal stage, are distributed within the mucosal tissues in the periphery. Vγ6+ γδ T cells are exclusive interleukin (IL)-17 producers among γδ T cells, and Vγ6+ IL-17A+ γδ T (γδT17) cells play important roles in protection against microbial infection and in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, such as colitis and autoimmune diseases. We have previously reported that γδT17 cells develop from the CD4–CD8– (DN)2b stage in the thymus at the prenatal stage in a Bcl11b-dependent manner. However, details of the development of Vγ6+ γδT17 cells remain obscure. To analyze Vγ6+ γδ T cells in detail, we recently developed a monoclonal antibody (mAb; termed 1C10-1F7) specific to mouse Vg6 chain. Use of this mAb revealed that Vγ6+ γδ T cells in 0-day-old thymus were co-localized with medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs), which regulate T cell tolerance by self-antigen presentation using major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II. Here, we report that MHC class II in the thymus inhibits the generation of Vγ6+ γδT17 cells.
